The owner of gambling terminal machine operator Sudama Resorts LLC has pleaded guilty to the $240 million illegal enterprise.

The Telegraph reported that Sandip Patel has admitted committing three counts of commercial gambling on Monday. Patel’s plea came after his company agreed to forfeit $1.6 million in a racketeering and illegal gambling lawsuit.

Patel was meted with a one-year house arrest followed by a four-year probation as part of his plea bargaining deal. In return, Patel agreed to help authorities bust other illegal gambling in the state of Georgia and testify before the court if summoned as a state witness.

The state gave him immunity from being prosecuted for statements he makes while helping authorities, according to Macon Judicial Circuit District Attorney David Cooke. He added that Patel’s medical condition has also saved the gambling operator from being thrown in the prison.
